I love this thing,
For the past 2 months ive been soloing around in a Vindi/nightmare/Bhaalgorn.
I thought I would give a relatively unseen bs on the pvp scene some recognition and do what i do.
I must say at first i was skeptical but its brilliant its much like the vindi in the sense its a close range brawler it has the ability to have a tonne more range ofc but its still a close range brawler at hear twith the torps.
My fit is highly specialised for solo and I love it.
HUGE Active tank but unlike my nightmare for example it has a natural 20k worth of shields as a buffer without extenders so i dont even need to rep through half my fights untill my shields drop below 50% which takes a while..
Rattle snake needs some recogniition -
What do you guys use for fits on your snakes if you use them at all for pvp -
Opinions?
I want to see what the rest of even thinks.

Tank is great, utility is good. Dps and damage projection is subpar for pirate bs.

I have three Rattlers at the moment and once I get the skills to T2 fit it with Torpedoes and heavy Drones, I intend to turn a few to PVP. -------------------------------------------------- I am the Love Angel, Wedding Peach, and I am very displeased by your lack of love! |

I used to have a friend that duel boxed with a rattler and a Navy Scorp, he picked up quite a rep with them! (small gangs would run lol, hed land on a BC gang and melt one before they realised what was going on and then happilly do it to the rest until they got the idea.) I think the main thing is people engage more often than other faction BS... not to sure why...? - Nulla Curas |

rattlesnake is ****. The vindi , nm, bhaalghorn and mach are ships everyone would love to fly , in pvp, pve , to jita and back.
RS depends on: 1st drones 2nd missiles 3rd passive shield tank.
Actually rattlesnake used to have distinctive a-symmetrical design going for it but they screwed up that too. Now it's a totally unremarkable generic BS, which a smart gang would evade since they'd think it's a bait ship - no one in their right mind can think that someone would consider the possibility for actual combat in that useless joke of a ship.

This is exactly what I rely on.
I got a fight earlyer today 2 vagas 2 canes rapier dram daredevil n blackbird.
If not for the Blackbird at 80km getting lucky jams \o/ i would of got more then 4 kills.
Trust me this ship is more than capable solo.
1. Active tank its great - it has a 20k buffer with level 5 bonuses with NO EXTENDERs. 2. I can fit Web and a point on mine 3. Its a close range brawler perfect for breaking up gate camps.
Its heavily understimated.
I flew the nm bhaalgorn and Vindi I solo in them all the time.
I am actualy enjoying the rattlesnake more because people seem to want to engage it more and when they do they so far have lost.
Its a good ship people need to think out of the box when flying ships like this in pvp.
its not all cookie cutter guys.

The Rattlesnake is a monster for PVP, if your not a cheap-o. active tank with crystals, standard blue pill, just incase. Tank like a pony on beefcake 2000, more fun with a few buddies though by your side. Follow Flynn on Twitter |

And tengu booster. Without all the bling its just dominix with more ehp and worse damage projection.

Not really, vindi gives you 90% webs, bhaal gives you 35km webs + bonused neuts and mach is basically faster than any bc. Any of them can be fitted really "cheap" - while still keeping its main strenght.
Rattler is really unimpressive if you dont fit expensive mods on it. And shield mods are especially expensive thanks to high demand from mission runners.
Not saying its bad ship, in fact its good platform for pimp active shield tank - but pirate implants, drugs, t3 booster and expensive mods can make almost all ships really good.

So uh.
Is this 'solo' in the sense ONLY ONE SHIP, or 'solo' in the sense of PVP Ship + Tengu Booster + Loki Booster + Falcon alts + Transport Ship alts
Which is it?

I think that's what makes it awesome, you *usually* dont see solo pirate BS PvP. You dont need complex mods to make it shine either. . Adapt and overcome or become a monkey on an evolution poster.

I am considering doing something similar, and would love to see your fit if you would share?

cyno - the most important part of your fit. Then it all comes down to who bridges in the bigger fleet.
I'm starting to think that high sec wars and WH warfare are the last refuge of blobless combat.
